Some possible line combinations

Top line: M. Lemieux, S. Crosby, Z. Palffy
Second line: J. LeClair, R. Malone, M. Recchi

And those are just the top two lines. And that's not figuring in Evgeni Malkin, provided he can be signed from his Russian team so that it can be ascertained whether he has, in fact, caught up to Alexander Ovechkin in terms of raw gamebreaking potential. And that's not counting on either of the two enigmatic Eastern Europeans, Aleksey Morozov and Milan Kraft. Figure in the lightning-quick Konstantin Koltsov and the apparently-motivated Colby Armstrong, and the over/under for when Sports Illustrated or some other mass media outlet uses "March of the Penguins" to describe these guys is looking more and more like it will come before Christmas.
